Hi, I go to UT (university of texas). I am sophomore right now. my sGPA looks just fine but my cGPA suffers

sGPA : 3.87
cGPA : 3.41

I havent take the PCAT yet, planning on taking it sometime on 2011.
Do they really care about cGPA? equivalent to sGPA?
I havent got any C's but I got bunch of B's...
 
Being worried about B's is... not necessary to say the least. You will be just fine with a 3.41, but you still have time to improve if you're legitimately worried about it.
 
Try to maintain your cGPA. There is absolutely nothing wrong with having a bunch of B's on your transcript, as long as you also get some A's. Hell, there is nothing wrong with having an occasional C as well. Continue to do well and you will be fine. Try to get some work experience and some ECs as well. Most, if not all, pharmacy schools want a well rounded applicant. So GPA ain't the most important requirement, but still important nonetheless.
